1sunnuri 77 Posted January 19, 2014 I know most of us seriously contemplate plastics such as breastlift n Tummy Tuck but what about face work? I never thought I would b one to consider it but since losing weight my under chin area is seriously sagging. Does it tighten up any after awhile? Im 49 going on 50 soon. I know I'm ok with everything else concerning my face..I think its a blessing to grow older but without the excess skin under the chin. 1 Indigo1991 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carlotta1 401 Posted January 19, 2014 Of course I would have plastics on my face if I dislike a sagging neck, chin, jowls etc. with today's technology there is a whole lot going on...search all treatment avenues available. I always told my husband that I would get one when I feel I need it. I have funds marked as my facelift money fund. Haha. I am kind of lucky cause I have really good body tone so my face or neck is not there yet for a lift. However, I have had juvederm injected by my mouth for some creases. It lasts for two years. If u do consider having one soon.. Do your homework and find a reputable plastic surgeon. Ps my sister had a facelift years ago and still looks 10 years younger with her neck and face lift.

shamps4all 28 Posted January 19, 2014 I don't know much about plastic surgery, but I have to say those Lifestyle Lift commercials on TV look pretty convincing! 1 HappygoSusan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indigo1991 1,612 Posted January 19, 2014 Having swapped at least 2 chins for a slightly wrinkly neck, know what I prefer, lol - and I would have a neck lift to sort it if it gets worse or really bothers me. As for my face, I am happy to age gracefully :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted January 20, 2014 I think time helped my face alot. I have been at goal almost a year and I get alot more comments on how young I look now. I do have some neck wattle but I am lucky it isnt too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted January 20, 2014 I had a face lift. I could not stand the way my face and neck looked after I lost weight. i went to Mexico. He's supposed to be a very good surgeon. However, my face is still numb after over 2 years. I've heard of others that have numbness that never goes away, but I really don't know how common it is. I hate the way it feels, but I love the way it looks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrsVanderbilt 29 Posted January 28, 2014 A few years ago I lost 75 pounds and hated my saggy neck. So at 32 years old I had a neck lift with fat transferred to my face and lips. Best money I ever spent!! When I go to a new doctor and they ask my surgical history they are shocked to hear of someone as young as me getting plastic surgery. And it also looks so natural you would never know it! 1 Susysleever reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blinky2 5 Posted February 5, 2014 My mom had bypass 5 years ago and lost weight quickly. All my friends said they thought she looked better heavier, but i think it was just because of the loose skin on her face and neck. She just turned 48 and her skin has tightened up a lot from what it was and no one thinks she's pushing 50! If she did use any serums or lotions it would have been from Walmart and probably generic brand because that is how my mom rolls. 2 Danni-doinit4me and jujubslim reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted February 8, 2014 I love my face lift I am 61 and people tell me I look 45 all the time. I just wish my face was not numb. He changed the whole shape of my face. I used to have a very round face. He sucked out all the fat and now I have cheekbones. 1 Susysleever reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted February 8, 2014 I will definitely explore fillers but don't know too much about them. I wish my neck wattle was gone....but I would feel uncomfortable changing my face drastically just because... Daisy I am so glad you mention the numbness because I have a numb belly button and it's weird. I really have to consider that numbness risk to the face carefully.

I would really like to find more people who have had a face lift and find out if this numbness is realy common. I keep wondering if he had not removed so much fat out of my face, if the numbness would be the same. I don't know where the nerves get cut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He does a lot of face work and the numbness happens to everyone. not to be graphic but the nerve endings have to reattach to the new face and it takes a while to do that. Same with someone that has liposuction. The nerve endings are detached. It could last up to 6 months. How long ago was your surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
